  <title>Reserve PO file</title>

  <p>You can reserve a po file for translation, during the process of downloading it from Damned Lies. To be able to reserve a po file, you need to be authenticated.</p>

   <list type="numbered">
    <title>To authenticate yourself:</title>
      <item><p>Login to your account on <link href="https://l10n.gnome.org/">Damned Lies</link></p></item>
      <item><p>From your profile, click on the <gui style="button">Create auth token </gui>button.</p></item>
      <item><p>Copy the auth token that has been generated; you can find it just below your profile details.</p></item>
      <item><p>Launch the Translation Editor and go to Preferences &gt;&gt; Profiles.</p></item>
      <item><p>Select your profile and click on the <gui style="button">Edit Profile</gui> button.</p></item>
      <item><p>Paste the auth token you copied in the "DL auth token" field and click on the <gui style="button">OK</gui> button.</p></item>
      <item><p>You have successfully authenticated yourself. You can now perform the reserve operation.</p></item>
  </list>

  <list type="numbered">
    <title>To reserve a po file:</title>
      <item><p>Click on the <gui style="button">Load from DL</gui> button (if you are on the main window) or <gui style="button">Open from Damned Lies</gui> icon (if a po file is open) in the header bar.
      You can also use the <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>D</key></keyseq> keyboard shortcut.</p></item>
      <item><p>Select your desired po file; specifying the particular team, module, branch and domain.</p></item>
      <item><p>The state of the po file is displayed.</p></item>
      <item><p>Select the <gui style="button">Reserve for translation</gui> checkbox to reserve your chosen po file.</p></item>
      <item><p>A message dialog will display the status of the operation.</p></item>
      <item><p>If the message dialog displays a success message, you have successfully reserved the po file for translation.</p></item>
      <item><p>However, if the <gui style="button">Reserve for translation</gui> checkbox is deactivated, it means the po file cannot be reserved. This is because it is not in the appropriate state.
